Summary: spinbox-1.8.4 fails

Initial Comment:

Tk HEAD just started reporting this
in the full `make test` results:

spinbox.test


==== spinbox-1.8.4 -validate option: FAILED
==== Contents of test case:

    .sb configure -validate all -validatecommand {lappend ::spinbox_test %P}
    pack .sb
    .sb set 50
    focus .sb
    after 100 {set ::spinbox_wait 1} ; vwait ::spinbox_wait
    set ::spinbox_test

---- Result was:

---- Result should have been (exact matching):
50
==== spinbox-1.8.4 FAILED

Running just the spinbox.test files results
in no failure, so this is probably a test
isolation problem.

Message:
OK, can replicate now: this appears to be WM-sensitive.

Cause of problem: [focus .sb] does not necessarily give .sb the focus; in
particular, if the WM did not set focus to the tktest main window, .sb will
never get a <FocusIn> event and validation will not trigger.

Possible fix: replace:

focus .sb ; after 100 {set ::spinbox_wait 1} ; vwait ::spinbox_wait

with:

focus -force .sb ; update
